You know, they've shown that being sufficiently tired is like being drunk
The paper I finished at 11 this morning, after working through the night, is easily the hardest I've ever found a paper. I used to churn those things out like it was nothing. A combination of rust and an utterly uninspiring topic meant that this one wasn't just hard fought, I had to wrestle it to the ground, drag it out into the hall and use the fire extinguisher to hit it until it stopped twitching. I am hoping my other papers this semester prove to be less effort. For now, it's off to work on 3 hours of sleep, whee...
I hear you. I've got one due today too, and it has been a REAL pain in the ass.
I think (for me at least) the whole first-paper-for-grad-school thing might be part of it.

It's part of, but not all of it. I think we're in similar boats, though. Any chance you'll be in Guelph soon? I'm going to TO to see Hot Chip on the 7th...
